net: bridge: Mark FDB entries that were added by user as such
Externally learned entries can be added by a user or by a switch driver that is notifying the bridge driver about entries that were learned in hardware. In the first case, the entries are not marked with the 'added_by_user' flag, which causes switch drivers to ignore them and not offload them. The 'added_by_user' flag can be set on externally learned FDB entries based on the 'swdev_notify' parameter in br_fdb_external_learn_add(), which effectively means if the created / updated FDB entry was added by a user or not. Fixes: 816a3be ("switchdev: Add fdb.added_by_user to switchdev notifications") Signed-off-by: Ido Schimmel <idosch@mellanox.com> Reported-by: Alexander Petrovskiy <alexpe@mellanox.com> Reviewed-by: Petr Machata <petrm@mellanox.com> Cc: Roopa Prabhu <roopa@cumulusnetworks.com> Cc: Nikolay Aleksandrov <nikolay@cumulusnetworks.com> Cc: bridge@lists.linux-foundation.org Signed-off-by: David S.
